About the Department of Organic Synthesis and Bioorganic Chemistry
In 1933, the Department of Chemistry was established. Two years later, the Institute of Chemical Research began operating under the faculty. The laboratories of the Institute conducted research in 4 important departments of chemistry: organic, analytical, physical, and colloid chemistry. Scientific research in organic chemistry was started in the 1920s by Professor L.N. Parfent'ev. In the period of 1933-1941, the properties of some organophosphorus compounds (L.N. Parfent'ev, M.H. Shodiev, A.A. Shamshurin), organic sodium compounds (S.P. Lagerev, A.N. Binom), olefins (K.M. Shodmonov) and their derivatives (A.A. Shamshurin, R.A. Ibodulin) were studied. Scientific research of plant resources of Zeravshan valley occupies a very important place. M.M. Abramov and S.M. Strepkov made a great contribution to the development of research in the field of plant chemistry. Later, Prof. G.V. Lazurevskii and Academician O.S. Sadikov were the first to initiate studies of plant alkaloids in the Central Asian republics. |

Prof. Y.V. Kurbatov, a student of Academician of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan O.S. Sodikov, whose merits are incomparable, contributed to the prosperity of the chair of organic chemistry. Under his leadership assistant E.V. Sukervanik, associate professor Sh.V. Abdullaev, A.S. Kurbanova, associate professor F.M. Saidova, associate professor E.O. Oripov, associate professor S. Bazhenova, M.A. Solikhova, associate professor Sattiklov A, Associate Professor D.A. Turaeva, Associate Professor M.J. Alimova, Assistant Professor S.M. Babayonova, Assistant Professor K.O. Zohidov and Senior Laboratory Assistant S.N. Kasimov conducted scientific research on the synthesis of bioactive heterostatic compounds and their modification. Pyridine, quinoline, isoquinoline, pyrimidine, chonosolines, and flavonoids made a great step forward in chemistry. The department has defended one doctoral dissertation and more than 10 Ph. Pyridine, quinoline, isoquinoline, pyrimidine, chonosolines, and flavonoids have made great strides forward in chemistry. One doctoral dissertation and more than 10 Ph.D. theses were defended in the department. After Prof. Yu.V. Kurbatov, the department was headed by docent D.A. Turaeva. D.A. Turaeva was the head of the department. After that the chair was headed by such scientists as associate professor M.Y. Alimova, associate professor Z.U. Samarov, S.U. Tillaev, and now the head of the chair is associate professor D.B. Tukhtayev. The Department of Organic Synthesis and Bioorganic Chemistry functioned for several years as part of the Faculty of Natural Sciences, and then as the Department of Organic and Inorganic Chemistry within the Faculty of Biology and Chemistry. Since September 2018, it operated as the Department of Organic and Bioorganic Chemistry in the Department of Chemistry, and since 2019 as the Department of Organic Synthesis and Bioorganic Chemistry. |

The Department of Organic Synthesis and Bioorganic Chemistry employs 13 teachers, including 3 doctors of sciences, professors, 9 candidates of sciences, associate professors and 1 assistant professor. Today the scientific potential of the department is 93%. Until 2020 the department carried out scientific work on the theme "Synthesis of biologically active substances with a heterocycle containing two heteroatoms" on the fundamental grant. Currently, the process of creating a scientific laboratory called "Chemistry of natural compounds" is underway. On the initiative of Prof. R.I. Khalmuradov, Rector of Samarkand State University, Prof. H.A. Bozorov, Doctor of Chemical Sciences, was appointed as Head of the scientific laboratory. |
